Digby Outshines Krug & Dom Pérignon

November 03, 2017

1st November 2017: a date that will go down in wine history. At the new heart of the London wine world, 67 Pall Mall, Steven Spurrier held a reprise of his Judgement of Paris that put Napa wine on the world map in 1976, but this time with a blind tasting of the top English wines against their French rivals. Digby's flagship, 2010 Vintage Brut (RRP £40), beat none other than Krug Grande Cuvée NV (RRP £140), 2009 Dom Pérignon (RRP £115) and NV Gosset (RRP £50). Cheers to England!

An up-and-coming generation of winemakers is challenging the traditional geographic and varietal-specific boundaries that have defined world-class sparkling wines. In Sussex, Digby Fine English is making the best brut rosé north of Champagne. "
